Your OOC opinion about AN's leader/character

by **Silver Commonwealth** » Wed Sep 16, 2020 1:43 am

Just a simple thread idea I had in my head today. Similar to the ''Your Leader's Opinion on AN's Leader'' thread, except that this time it is you, the user, giving the opinion. You can customize text all you want - you can use bold and italics (Just mark it as OOC), use plain text, or even make a small template! Overall, mostly the same rules from Leader's opinion thread apply - it is highly recommended to have a leader's factbook before posting there. Doubleposting is highly frowned upon, and if you get ninja'd, edit your post. Also, it doesn't necessarily have to be the ''leader'' - if you have multiple characters and want others to comment on a different one, tell so in the post.

Acronyms for those who might not know:

OOC: Out of Character, a.k.a your own words, not the in-character of your leader

AN: Above Nation, a.k.a the nation above yours in a forum thread

He's a computer! He's a computery guy!

Genuinely, that's it, Tom's a nice enough fellow, his very clearly mechanical nature is the bit that sticks out to me.

I honestly think she'd be a scene kid if she were born in the modern world. Or like, 1997, anyway.

But hey, she's done infinitely more than I did at her age. So what can I say?

Probably evil.

I like the young, yet traditional vibes that he has

I like Bodie and his policies, despite his limited government thing, which is very neoliberal. I can see myself voting for him in an election.

AN: As much as I don't like libertarian socialists, Lucas is a good guy, and I support his secularist and pro-equality stances. Plus he's a special character, as he is one of the few Libertarian Socialists that supports the right to bear arms. Lucas also got a stand, which is super cool. One day I'll make a character with a stand.

I like her. Integralism is a respectable ideology, especially for an already multiethnic nation like Brazil. And since she seems to follow along with the doctrine of Integralism I view her positively.

I find the Light to be a repulsive dude and another evil bureaucrat like Wallace Breen from Half Life 2

If r/surrealmemes was a human, that would describe the patron

Absolutely despicable and beyond the human capacity for contempt, but this is also the most well-detailed meme I've ever seen, so I applaud him for that. Also, I loved him in Shrek.

I find myself agreeing with a disturbing number of his hot takes. Should I see a psychiatrist?

by **SatoSere** » Mon Sep 21, 2020 6:12 pm

I love how... absurd and philosophical Kotera the Pikachu is.

AN: Haven't read much about him, but him being close to his people and being highly minarchist is unique for NS.

I don't really know anything about Artur other than the fact that his wife is genetically enhanced, which is...sus. But that makes it even more cursed, especially since Ash of the Ketchum appears to be missing out.

HEY, KIDS? DO YOU WANT TO SEE LEICHTENSTEINER DEMOMAN SLOWLY WASTE AWAY IN A HOSPITAL BED AS A RESULT OF HIS TRAGIC PAIN OVER HIS FATHER'S DEATH? NO? TOO BAD!

Does hippy know 1960s was like 900 year ago and none of us were born yet?

Not much information on them but they're worshipped as a god which is funny. And we all know, funny is the only thing that matters.
I think they'd be pretty interesting if there was more information on them.

Never really quite expected to see the Consul from HL2 to lead a nation. Though, considering their nation's ideology it definitely does fit perfectly like a glove. I can easily recognize the Combine influence from a mile away.

BN: Write with effort, I don't appreciate "Ice Cream" or the standard Le Redditor "Hurr Durr Animu Bad".

Personally, I dislike RWBY. I think it's a terrible show and I kinda hate that everyone calls it anime. That being said, Neo is like one of the character designs I actually enjoy. I also just think she's kinda cool. Sorry that this isn't all that detailed, but yeah. I think it's neat to give a cool character some actual cool story.

The Twins have a very unique backstory; they represent a creative twist on an alternate history question that is one of the more commonly pondered ones. Their personalities are friendly, and their interactions on the forums work well on F7. I do not fully know much about their politics beyond their passionate nationalism and their vehement dislike for communism, however, though I have always pictured them as being just rulers. They do not give off, for me, an authoritarian vibe, though their millennium-old ancestress is quite scary. I am interested to know more about their magic and ideology so I can develop more insights into them as characters.

I thought Alastair was a self reflection and got worried. Apparently he's not, which is good. But I love how much flavor he has, he's one of the most unique MT leaders and among my favorites, too.
I remember initially thinking he was going to be a little boring, but I was pleasantly surprised after a while.

I hate fascism, as you know, and 'race realism' is nothing but pseudoscientific nonsense. However, I have some admiration for The Light. He knows how to use power, and he knows how to achieve political projects. In many ways, I wish people on the Left were more alike that than not. Perhaps then we wouldn't be in such a mess.

Can you actually elaborate on how he uses power, achieves political projects and such? Been focused so much on his background lately....forgot how my boy leads...

From what I understand, at least, Tsarus underwent a genuine cultural revolution (although, a reactionary one) and The Light's rule is primarily enforced not through brutal repression (although, again, he does not shy away from that, it seems) but through social reinforcement and stigmatisation. It seems, to me, that, under Jozef/The Light, the State has successfully managed all aspects of society - economic, social, political, and private - to the fullest extent, managing to usher in a stable Strazhnist society. That is, out of the State-enforced order (totalitarianism) came community-enforced order.

That being said, a Strazhnist society is absolutely awful, and is not a valid political goal or ideal in any way. However, it is a successful revolution.

Well. He is a terrorist, who has killed several people before, to be honest I think Wuchu is just supposed to be his delusional rants about society.

Yeah, I don't support him.
